Spinach & Onion Dip Pizza

Spinach is super good for you, so you should love it. Full of calcium, iron, vitamin A, and folate. Yumm yumm!

The crust of this recipe is my go-to crust. No matter what the topping of my pizza are going to be, I always make this crust. Parmesan, garlic, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside.... *drool*

The ingredients for this pizza are super easy on the wallet and the whole thing comes together in no time. For me, it's a great mid-week treat and the best part is I always have leftovers for lunch the next day! Except for the first time I made this, I almost didn't have leftovers because it was soooo yummy.

True story... I ate some for dinner, then I ate some for lunch the next day. Then it was Saturday and I was so excited that I had a tiny bit leftover still, I ate it for breakfast!

All things in moderation!
